Star Wars Cats Getting Jedi Training

Star Wars: The Force Awakens opened on Dec. 18 to eager fans and rave reviews, along with pleas all over social media to not spoil the film for those of us who haven’t seen it yet. We’ve all also been dealing with all things Star Wars in commercials, as everyone has been capitalizing on the release of the long-awaited Episode VII. You probably wouldn’t have thought that cats would get much out of this, but apparently, there are cats getting Jedi training out there.

Wait, what? Cats getting Jedi training? Come on.

To be sure, the cats getting Jedi traning aren’t really, but they are getting “training” and playtime courtesy of Master Yoda, the great Jedi master himself, in this hilarious video. Yoda’s lightsaber is acting as a wand toy in this video, and the cats getting Jedi training are actually a bit bemused by it. Watch below:

What better way to celebrate Star Wars and give your cat some much needed playtime than something like this? If you think your cat would make a great Padawan, and later on, an amazing full-fledged Jedi knight, then perhaps Master Yoda is exactly who you need.

Introducing your cats to Master Yoda

Be sure to introduce your cat to Master Yoda slowly; cats, even Jedi cats, need time to get used to something new, and even more time if it’s going to move and make sounds, as Master Yoda does. The last thing you want to do if you’d like to see your cats getting Jedi training is to scare them. Don’t forget to tie something you’d find on a wand toy to his lighsaber so they have something to go after.

The toy itself is available at Amazon, and it’s battery-powered, so you can sit back and watch your cats getting Jedi training…at least until the batteries run out. Keep in mind that your cats still need your direct interaction, despite what Master Yoda can do, and this might not be the best toy to leave on while you’re not home. If you want to see your cats getting Jedi training, though, then make sure your cats get the absolute best Jedi training there is.
